Here is the oldest plant in my apartment. This is my pin cushion cactus. It’s survived being in an enclosed terrarium (🙃), a college art piece, The mealy bug infestation of 2014, and relocating it a million times in the apartment. It now grows happily alongside other cacti and succulents that I keep in my bedroom. It serves as a good reminder of where I started in my plant journey. I never took my plant parent hood experiences lightly. Every mistake was as important as my accomplishments. Your plant parent experience doesn’t need to be picture perfect but it should bring you joy 💚 :: :: :: #apartmentbotanist #apartmentplants #myfirstplant #pincushion #pincushioncactus #plantjourney #plantparenthood #plantparent #plantcommunity #houseplantclub #plantsmakepeoplehappy #urbanjungle #urbanjunglebloggers #cacti #cactus #apartmentliving #nyc (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CF25flRgnfu/?igshid=1akk3beadr195
